Real Madrid lost 0-4 in warm-up match, and the trip to the United States failed to meet expectations

In the just-concluded US warm-up match, Real Madrid lost 0-4 to Paris Saint-Germain (Paris). This loss was like a heavy blow, hitting the morale and confidence of the Galaxy Battleship. The originally hopeful trip to the United States ended in such a bitter way, which made it difficult for fans and the team to accept. This is not only a loss in a game, but also a warning to Real Madrid's future development.

Background: Real Madrid's dilemma and hope

In the past season, Real Madrid's performance can be described as "disappointing". Neither in the La Liga nor the Champions League, the team failed to meet the expectations of the outside world. This US warm-up match was originally regarded as an important opportunity for the new coach Alonso to adjust his lineup and rebuild his confidence. However, this crushing defeat completely shattered people's fantasy about Real Madrid's short-term recovery.

What is even more regrettable is that the team has lost many veterans this season - Modric and Vasquez's departure not only reduced the midfield experience value, but also made the spiritual leader in the locker room vacant. At this time, Valverde, who was only 27 years old, was pushed to the second captain. His shoulders were not only responsible, but also the expectations of the whole team.

Match Review: From the start of the game to the full defeat, less than 10 minutes into the game, Real Madrid was scored two goals by Paris. Such an opening directly destroyed the team's fighting spirit and tactical arrangement. Due to Arnold's accidental injury, Valverde had to play a temporary cameo as the right-back, a change that left Real Madrid completely losing control in the midfield. Facing the impact of Paris star Kvaratsheria, Valverde seemed unable to do so, and the lack of his dispatch in the midfield made Real Madrid's offense and defense in chaos.

Although Valverde kept encouraging his teammates on the court and trying to rekindle the fighting spirit of the whole team, Paris' comprehensive crush on the technical and tactical level made Real Madrid unable to make the situation come true. In the end, the score was frozen at 0-4, and the Galaxy ended the game in an almost humiliating way.

Valverde spoke out: Perseverance and hope in failure

After the game, Valverde did not accept the media interview, but he made a sincere remark on his personal social media: "We are training hard every day and have put in a lot of effort to win this event. Although we failed to do so, we will continue to strive to improve ourselves and make up for every shortcomings. We once dreamed of winning this trophy, not only for ourselves, but also for Modric and Vasquez who once inspired us."

Valverde's words not only show his responsibility as the captain, but also inject a little comfort into the disappointed fans. What is more worth mentioning is that he also expressed his gratitude to the fans: "Thank you for supporting us as always in good times and bad times. Although this trip to the United States failed, we will never give up."

Reactions between fans and the media: From criticism to expectation

Real Madrid's disastrous defeat caused an uproar on social media. Many fans were angry at the team's performance, believing that Alonso's tactical adjustments were too conservative and failed to fully realize the potential of young players. However, there were also rational voices pointing out that this game exposed Real Madrid's serious lack of control in midfield, which is not a problem that can be solved overnight.

media, Valverde's performance was highly praised. Despite the overall failure of the team, as a temporary right back, he still showed a tenacious fighting spirit. More importantly, he tried to stabilize the morale of the army through words and actions after the game, which is exactly the quality that Real Madrid needs most at present.

The future of Real Madrid: Finding a breakthrough from the loss

This disastrous defeat undoubtedly sounded the alarm for Real Madrid. The team needs to solve the following problems as soon as possible in future games:

The lack of the core of the midfield: After Modric left, Real Madrid lacked a stable playmaker in the midfield.

Inadequate tactical adaptability: Alonso needs to be more flexible in tactical arrangements to deal with emergencies.

Growth of young players: Real Madrid's future lies in the younger generation, but they need more game experience and psychological resilience.

However, Real Madrid is not without hope. Valverde's rise, Bellingham's potential, and the overall team's foundation are still the basis for their return to the top.

Conclusion: Failure is the price of growth

For Real Madrid, this 0-4 defeat is certainly heartbreaking, but it also provides them with a profound opportunity to reflect. Valverde's voice after the game demonstrated the team's resilience and determination. As he said, "Failure is not scary, and giving up is the real failure." As long as Real Madrid can learn from it, they still have the opportunity to prove themselves again in the future.
